I confirm this problem too, this on Debian (/etc/debian_version = 9.0), insync 1.3.15, after the latest upgrade.
Headless seems to work okay, but not the GUI. Oddly enough, running the GUI as root brings it up alright. Below is a trace of running as a normal user.
$ insync start --no-daemon

I have the same system and version of the program experiencing the same problem.
I solved the problem by installing the insynс:i386
Probably the problem is in its 64-bit version under Linux.
